Unsurprisingly, the interns for Search Party Music founder Randall Poster — who sets the soundtracks for everything from Wes Anderson movies to HBO’s Boardwalk Empire — have wide-reaching music taste. Here, from left, Lydia Mozzone, Hannah Mensch, Emily Schkolnick and Julianne Wilson share their go-to playlists.

Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest…the possibilities are endless when it comes to social media. Just ask former Tory Burch intern Hayley Bloomingdale, right, who currently navigates the digital waters for Moda Operandi. Here wearing Tory’s Talley dress, Hayley and her own intern Rebecca Shumlin talk about that world and how to maximize internship opportunities.
Funnyman Conan O’Brien and his intern Jess Hackel have shared plenty of laughs, but they also know how to get down to business. Here, they advise on how to get the most out of an internship; plus, find out where Conan would most like to intern himself.
That sweet smell of success? It follows Veronique Gabai-Pinsky, who oversees designer fragrances at Estée Lauder, everywhere. Read her advice and find out what Veronique, here wearing Tory’s double-chain diamanté teardrop necklace, and her intern Carly Boxer, wearing the Judi dress, have learned this summer.
As visual people, it’s no surprise that architect and designer Daniel Romualdez and his intern Carlos Lambarri see eye to eye. Both agree: If you ask for work, you’ll get the most out of an opportunity.
Our summer interns just headed back to school, and we miss them already. We hope we inspired them as much as they did us. So as part of our annual Internship issue, we turned the spotlight on them. Here, Tory Daily interns Sophie Harris, left, and Margaret Lefton — wearing Tory’s Vanessa and Daphne jackets, respectively — talk about what they learned.
In fact, all week long, we’ll be featuring mentors and interns from a variety of fields. Check back daily for more.
A touch of Art Nouveau opulence, a lot of easygoing cool. Inspired by Tory’s trips to the Neue Galerie, Fall 2013 is filled with rich embroideries, deep jewel tones and lush floral velvet. Above are some of the other inspirations behind the season; to shop the collection, click here.
The mood of the season: striking and sophisticated, with rich colors and prints, mixed textures, subtle hints of gold — and special pieces for day to evening.
See the Accessories Guide and shop the looks here.
24-hour dressing is a beautiful thing — not everyone has time for a wardrobe change before an evening out. The trick is in the layering: a silk button-down and slim trousers go from office- to cocktail-ready with an amazing coat, for instance. And special details make all the difference, whether it’s a hint of lurex in a sweater, an embellished shoe or the glimmer of statement jewelry. After all, eveningwear-inspired touches deserve to live in the light of day, too.
Leafy greens on a dining table? Not at all unheard of. Here, however, they come with an unexpected and playful touch, as part of the tabletop décor. The vintage designs, paired with a set of birds from Tory’s mom Reva, offer a colorful complement to a fresh and cheerful bouquet of pale pink hyacinths — the perfect finishing touch for the season.
Klimt inspirations. Klimt exhibits. Now how about a little Klimt…cake? This recipe comes courtesy of the Neue Cuisine cookbook by Austrian chef Kurt Gutenbrunner, who’s the culinary brains behind Café Sabarsky at the Neue Galerie. The layered hazelnut torte, topped with crumbled gold leaf, brings to mind Klimt’s brilliantly sun-kissed Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I, also at the museum. So even if you’re not in New York, you can bring a slice of the Neue home with you.
The inspiration behind Fall 2013 began with Tory’s trips to the Neue Galerie, a gem of a museum on New York’s famed Museum Mile. A collaboration between art dealer Serge Sabarsky and Ronald S. Lauder (of the Estée Lauder family), it’s famous for its focus on German and Austrian art of the early 20th century — but what else do we know? Here, a few fun facts about the Neue and its founders.
P.S. For more great New York destinations, see our New York City Guide.
As Co-Founder and Managing Editor of Odalisque Magazine in Stockholm, Michaela Myhrberg has her finger on the pulse of fashion, art and all things Scandinavian. Here, wearing Tory’s Jasmine top, Michaela talks to us about Serge Gainsbourg, Stockholm for visitors and the must-visit museum for Dancing Queens.
This fall, it’s all about the mix — in every which way. Prints with prints or prints with laser-cut eyelets. Combinations of textures: nubby wool shot with Lurex, quilted leather, plush shearling. And layers, lots of layers, piled one atop the other, for cool comfort. Just keep the colors complementary — deep blues; rich greens — for a look that’s chicly pulled together.
The grand estates of Long Island’s Gold Coast not only inspired F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby, but one of them also serves as the setting for our Fall 2013 lookbook. Built in 1916 for Woolworth’s founder Frank Winfield Woolworth (and now owned by the brother of former New York governor Hugh Carey), the mysterious, luxe Woolworth mansion houses 56 stately rooms, elaborate crystal chandeliers and an opulent marble staircase. But it’s not all gilt and glamour — a labyrinth of secret passageways and hidden chambers have led to rumors of hauntings…. Mr. Woolworth is said to have been obsessed with the Egyptian occult, after all.
Our Fall 2013 collection isn’t the only place where you can spot the influence of Art Nouveau artists like René Lalique and Gustav Klimt. A number of museums around the world are holding exhibits dedicated to that era. The Decorative Revolution at la Pinacothèque de Paris traces the movement in France and its eventual segue into Art Deco — an accompanying exhibit on Tamara de Lempicka completes that arc — while the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston focuses on Dutch works during that period in Holland on Paper. Meanwhile, the National Gallery in London is hosting a major exhibit, Facing the Modern, that zeroes in on portraiture in Vienna, with classic works by Art Nouveau rock stars Klimt and Egon Schiele as well as other fin-de-siècle artists you might not know — but should.

Fall 2013’s electric eel color adds a brilliant charge to any silhouette. Play it up against black for a resonant pop or mix it all together for a fresh take on tone-on-tone.
Q: What was the inspiration behind Fall 2013’s bug theme and how do I wear the look?
A: I’ve always been drawn to scarabs and beetles — they appeared in our very first collection and we brought them back for Fall 2013 in new ways. We created fun graphic patterns with them on blouses, t-shirts and bags and used them as jewel-like embellishments on sweaters and silk skirts. We also did dragonflies, which are so elegant, and turned them into details on a heel. Scarabs, dragonflies and bugs have such a rich historic history, from inspiring Art Nouveau artists like Rene Lalique to their importance as ancient Egyptian talismans.
Sacred in ancient Egypt and just as special to our fall collection, the scarab is a surprisingly easy motif to wear. For a subtle touch, try a bejeweled pendant necklace or a beetle-print handbag. Or for more of a style buzz, why not go head-to-toe for a chic print-mixing moment? Either way, the effect is graphic and inarguably cool.
In celebration of Chinese Valentine’s Day tomorrow we spoke with the Hunan-born model Liu Wen. She told us all about the holiday and the romantic myth behind it.
Jewelry designer Osanna Visconti di Modrone isn’t just known for her sculptural cuffs and perfectly imperfect necklaces, she’s a notable figure in the art scene too. With her husband Giangaleazzo — who’s a contemporary art dealer in Milan — she’s a familiar face at the international art-fair circuit and, here, gives us her insider’s guide to that idyllic home of the Venice Biennale.
Style icons from Jackie Kennedy to Audrey Hepburn loved their leopard print. Here, wearing Tory’s Tanya top, Glamour’s Christina Pérez shares her take on the timeless pattern.
Just because we’re in the midst of lazy summer days doesn’t mean we should lose sight of good decorum. So we spoke with Right or Rude’s Jeannie Pearman, who gave us her advice for minding our summer P’s and Q’s.
